Matopos Hills

The Matopo Hills is an area of granite kopjes and wooded valleys in the south-eastern corner of Zimbabwe, close to the buzzing African city of Bulawayo. The area is home to a huge diversity of flora and fauna and is rich in history and legend. A combination of dramatic scenery, varied activities, rich species diversity and vivid, colourful and engaging history ensure a memorable visit for anyone.

A fascinating corner of this diverse country, the area surrounding Bulawayo, and the Matopos Hill in particular, offers visitors an experience unlike that elsewhere in Southern Africa.

Established in 1926, it is the oldest national park in Zimbabwe, and the hills themselves were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003. The area "exhibits a profusion of distinctive rock landforms rising above the granite shield that covers much of Zimbabwe".

The large boulders and caves offer natural shelters that have been associated with human occupation as far back as the early Stone Age. The area continues to be a strong focus for the local communities with many areas still used as shrines and considered sacred places. Visitors can explore the area on foot, in game drive vehicles or on horse-back accompanied by excellent, knowledgeable guides. The dams of the area also offer good boating and fishing.
